Experiences vary from person to person. What may have been memorable and worth repeating for one may have been a regrettable moment for another. 

The stories you’re about to read are more about the latter. People candidly shared the first experiences they’d rather forget in response to this Reddit question that made the rounds recently: “What’s something you tried once and instantly knew that it wasn’t for you?”

Commenters talked about the first time they explored mind-altering substances, went camping, had roommates, and dated after divorce. Some anecdotes were funny, others were perplexing, while a few were slightly saddening. 

Nevertheless, these were interesting reads many of you will likely enjoy.

#1

Dating again after my divorce. I realized I actually really truly did want my own space, my own home, my own finances, my own freedom. I was fulfilled by the relationships I had in my life.
The first relationship after my marriage lasted 14 days. The whole time, I tried. But I couldn’t do it.
I’m very happy alone.

Living with roommates. Cannot stand it. I’m fine living with a partner, family, or by myself. But a stranger, no thank you.

#3

Camping.

Spent one night in a tent and knew I belong indoors with AC and a fridge.

#4

Big, loud parties. I’m not all that social in the first place, but it gets worse when I’m surrounded by super social people who are all socializing very loudly, typically with very loud music in the background (I also have fairly sensitive hearing).

#5

Dancing in a club. It looked like a good time, then I discovered I have absolutely no idea what to do with my arms and legs on the dance floor, and I look and feel ridiculous. Not fun.

#6

For me, it was dating apps. I tried one out and instantly felt it wasn’t for me. The endless swiping and shallow interactions left me feeling more lonely than connected. Plus majority of people there only want one thing.

#7

Sweet potato fries. Everyone always tells me how great they are, but if you want fries, get fries. You can’t beat the classic.

Haunted houses. Having people jump out of the day and scream in my face while I walk through cheesy scenes of violence was not even a little fun for me.

#11

Marriage. I knew before I did it that I shouldn’t be doing it with this guy. I did it anyway. Big mistake. Huge. I figured out that it’s a lot easier to say I do, than it is to say I don’t want to do this anymore.

#19

I was shocked at how much I hate weighted blankets. People say so many good things about them! I put it over me, boom, instant claustrophobia. I don’t even have claustrophobia. Except with weighted blankets.
